11. (a) 51 minutes
(b) (i) Distance from Office  Sunset Ville  Casa Ville = 13.8 + 4.7 = 18.5 km

Total time taken travelling = 75 mins  51 mins (assembly) = 24 mins

Average travelling speed = 46.25 km/h = 46 km/h (nearest whole no.)

A reasonable estimate as it’s within the speed limit. OR

Not a reasonable estimate as the time taken to move the furniture up/wait for the lift is
not considered. As such, less time spent on the road and actual speed may be faster.

(ii) Total distance from Office  Sunset Ville  Casa Ville  Cloud Cove  Office
= 13.8 + 4.7 + 6.1 + 9.7
= 34.3 km

Total time taken (for travelling) = 34.3 km  46 km/h = 45 mins (to the nearest min)
Total time taken (for lunch) = 45 mins
Total time taken (for assembling) = 45 + 2(3) + 12 + 45 + 12 + 200 = 320 mins

Total time taken = 45 + 45 + 320 = 410 mins = 6 h 50 mins

6h 50 mins

The delivery men will be able to leave punctually.

Assumption: (Any one)

1. Owners are at home when delivery men reach.
2. No traffic jams.
3. Traffic condition is more or less the same from one location to another such that
average speed is 46 km/h.
